   (VIDEO) Why I'm leaving the ADHD diagnosis behind

   In this conversation I sit down with Ben Cook to talk about something that might ruffle a few feathers: What happens when you loosen your grip on the ADHD label? Ben and I are both speaking ADHD about it less and less. In my case, that’s basically not at all. Not because we’re denying struggle – but because we’re more interested in the human underneath the diagnosis: values, environment, habits, food, sleep, connection… and what’s actually possible when you stop treating four letters as a life sentence. We talk about: * How an ADHD diagnosis can both validate your experience and quietly limit you * The difference between understanding your brain and living inside a label * When diagnosis helps – and when it becomes an excuse not to try * Medication, side-effects, and why Joe had to go looking for alternatives * Ultra-processed food, inflammation, sleep, and why your “busy brain” might be screaming for a reset * The power of coaching, challenge, and having someone who refuses to buy your limiting story This is not an anti-diagnosis episode. It’s an honest, messy, hopeful chat about identity, agency, and what changes when you start asking: “Who am I beyond ADHD – and what kind of life do I actually want to build?” This is a public episode.
